Bygone Walla Walla: vintage images of the City and County (and beyond), collected by Joe Drazan: Natatorium constructed in 1917. The last 5 photos in this post were taken ca1920 by Henry Van Whiting on glass negatives, and shared here by Bill Taylor, his great grandson. The diver is unknown and it is certain these pictures have never been printed or published before.
